18x10.5 would be ideal imo with around +12 - +15 offset

I run 18x10" +15 on my 33 R, would of gone 10.5 but wern't available in that style needless to say they still sit very nice on the car IMO

18x10 +15 above (sorry dont really have any pics that show the fitment properly)

If it were more lower it would look more flush, I've seen it lower and looks a lot better but the car would be a pain to drive as a daily. All I'm using is some adjustable coilovers and doesn't scrub with anything at the moment at this height.

10.5 + 15 should fit ok might get a bit of scrubbing with the inside plastic guards when at full lock, but 34 GTRs have a tiny more bit of room to play with as far as I know.

I love them

Except, i keep getting people asking me things like

"I get the GTR part, thats the car name, but what does FTW stand for? is it: (my two favorites so far) F**k This World or For The Women

And i have a sneaking suspicion that one of the people up the road is reporting my comings and goings to the police, god knows that GTRFTW is a lot easier to remember than your normal alpha numeric plates

nice one mate! yeh i get GTR f**k the world or, my dad is like what is that? GTR f**king twat? lol

those rims should sit nicely same as mine cept it will just be 1CM inside the guards more still will look ace. Love those rims.

Owgas... if you're still wondering how 18x10.5 +15 sit on a GTR, here is mine with those dimensions. Got nervous when it was on the jack cos they stuck out immensely, but once the car dropped and the wheels cambered in, they sat just as I was hoping.

nice car man i need mine that height, how low is it from the ground? like exhaust / front lip?

Ok my wheels are on my car. I get a slight inner plastic guard rub at full lock but that is all. The te37 sl's make car look soooo much more tuff now. Was gonna run the 295/30 but went for 285/35 tyres. The amount of grip I have now since applying the wheels is just superb. Just needs to be lowered a bit more (coilovers coming soon) as the 19's have risen the height of the car. Nevertheless, I'm absolutely impressed with fitment. Wheels sit dead flush with guards so the +22 offset was perfect I reckon. I will post some pics up when i got time :) :)

UNR33L... Mine's on coilovers aswell and the front splitter and Cat are the two lowest points and both sit smack on 100mm from ground. So where I place the wheels on the road when it's measured, will decide on whether it's over or under, it's that close.

But have no troubles with speed humps although the massive front overhang make driveways particularly entertaining. But it's not a daily so no problem. It also rubs very slightly on full lock but only when the ground is uneven and the corner is compressed. Otherwise nothing.

    • I mean it's probably likely that people overestimate their skills in dialling in a setup and noticing the changes. I had SK shocks and springs, and added heavier springs and got them revalved by Sydney Shocks to suit based upon what I told them I wanted the car to handle like. I got back a completely different feeling set of shocks, which probably (?) feel great on track but holy hell are they rough on tram tracks and the like. The shock dyno actually looks pretty similar to Shockworks (from what I can surmise from a screenshot of a youtube video - and my dyno printout...) Truth be told I doubt I'd be any faster or slower with either setup, or camber/castor combination. I also had whiteline eccentric castor bushes up front of my R34. I removed them and put in poly non-adjustable ones to soothe my OCD (nobody ever set the castor the same side to side, and it'd be near impossible to do) and be happy the wheel is centered in the well now for clearance reasons. Yes I wanted it to move 1mm 'back' :p I've effectively set my castor back to stock, negating all the benefits of that which is supposedly massive. I've probably also altered toe and camber in a negative (detrimental) way. I can't tell any difference steering the car.
    • You reckon? I have to disagree. Notwithstanding that at some point we may all be forced to do this to our cars if we want to keep driving them, there is absolutely nothing about an electric-converted-previously-IC-car that is ever good. EVs that are built by OEMs on platforms that were originally IC already suck, let alone the shitty outcomes that result from doing it as a retro to something that was actually built as an IC car. This is because the platform really needs to be designed to house the battery in a useful place (ie, down as low as possible) and the motors are properly located relative to the wheels that they have to drive. Converted platforms already suck at this. But when you try to shove sufficient battery capacity into a previously IC car, you can't put it down on/in the floor, because that space doesn't exist. You can't find enough space where the fuel tank used to be (if it is an inboard fuel tank) and you don't want to hang it out behind the rear axle line if you had a rear fuel tank. And there's not enough space in the tunnel if you still want to use it for anything remotely like what it was originally used for. The engine bay is too big for a motor, and you'd really prefer that the motor for the rear wheels wasn't in the front engine bay anyway. And there's not enough room where the diff was for a proper man-sized E motor. And then.... there is the complete lack of soul and emotion that is provided by EVs. There are some cracking restomods out there. Like the Alfaholics GTA thingo. But it is petrol powered. Look at the alternative EV version of a GTA restomod by Totem. it is jaw droppingly beautiful. But by all reports is is objectively awful to drive, despite having 600 HP or something, simply because there is nothing there. It sounds like a sewing machine or a leaf blower. It should scream and wail and make the hairs on your neck stand up. Oh, and it's 1500 bloody kg in a car that was <900kg when new. GTRs are heavy enough as it is without pushing them up to 2tonnes worth of pork.

    • hahaha @joshuaho96 the most action it gets is when I have to drive from West to SE VIC to meet the fam. Even then, it;s on highway cruising speeds
    • don't know anyone in this thread, but i just found it, read the entire thing in a few hours, realized greg is still posting progress, and just have to say, this is awesome. it looks awesome. 100% right about the Uras kit making it a pain to get on hoists...have the same kit on my 34 and it takes six 2x4s and race ramps to do it without taking parts off. this reminds me exactly of this thread. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/r63-amg-the-unicorn-of-my-destruction/110824/page8/
